Peering is defined as a way to exchange data between IP networks on
primarily a settlement free basis. Network providers such as AT&T,
Sprint and others own high-speed connections that make up the Internet.
These providers transfer data between each other at locations called “peering”
points or Internet Exchanges. At these sites the networks ‘meet’
through interconnection of their backbone routers and exchange traffic
with one another over so called layer-2 infrastructure. These systems
are globally tied together by connecting high-capacity fiber optic lines
owned by network service providers.
Attendance at the forum is by invitation only and limited to peering
coordinators. Further information can be found at www.peeringforum.com.
